ATHLETICS vs. GIANTS: Official Full Game Highlights (June 25) | 2026 MLB Season (Jung Hoo Lee)

Giants obviously have a number of Venezuelan born players and really a striking number when the announcement was made that there are over fifteen hundred Venezuelans that are participants in professional baseball one way or another. Starting pitcher today for the Giants land a room making start number sixty five and seven on the year with a four one five era nine strikeouts against thirty three walks and eighty and a third got him hurt to do it. Front door sink and that's a nice confrontation to win an early hookup between these two and Rube goes by way of the front door to send him back packing Langley's hits pop up into shallow right field Schmidt going out Lee coming in and Leo make the call and the catch number three good start for Rube the Giants starting pitching has been a lot better here lately to be left hander Jeffrey Springs on the mound today for the Athletics 17 started the season for the Southpaw and it drives a left but that'll be a base hit that takes the hard turn and then they'll stop is sort of something about as good as you can get in left field third base side of the rubber Springs deals the one one on the ground a second base McNeil quick turn to second over to first no McNeil will only get one at second and Alika elected to put it in his pocket slap to left we'll hang up for Soderstrom and that will retire this side. Well Devers doesn't reach base here. Springs has a scoreless first Jonah Heim the third baseman for the first time at the big league level last night did not get any opportunities to showcase that glove work at third base. So the A's first base runner is swung on and missed strike three went up again with the four Seamer and Rube gets his second strike out of the game Muncie hits pop up behind first Eldridge and Schmidt coming together and Schmidt calls off Eldridge and makes the catch out number three. We're back in San Francisco bottom of the second nose score Adamas Lee and Barracuda are up then he can climb the ladder with a fastball at 90 miles an hour he strikes out Adamas first out and first strikeout for Springs happens here in the second. This is just an abuse of it. If I'm being honest Adamas had no chance of the changeup had no chance at that fastball that sat him down he'll strike out there. Nice pitch Jeffrey Springs featuring quite a bit more than just the fastball and changeup now mixes in the slider to strike out the grandson of the wind who generated some wind on this swing one to pitch soft grounder to second moving over McNeil throws to first to one to three for Springs very quick. And yeah caught him on the elbow. Jeff McNeil was getting ready to have a very spirited conversation with Paul Clemens should he have been brought back home one and one to Bolte. My drive base hit to the left was a soft liner McNeil had to hold up now he'll try to second a base hit for Bolte and now the A's have a runner in scoring position with the big man Nick Kurtz coming up. I'll tell you what that's just great usage of the top of the strike zone and Rupp wins a big out three two and for the third time it goes right back to the belt sends him back in one to. Swing and a miss as Rupp strikes out the side off speed swung on a miss went back to back with those changes he strikes out Susak that's the third strike out Springs lost him first walk in the afternoon for Jeffrey Springs now Eldridge comes up Eldridge a three hundred hitter against left handed pitching he'll fly this in the air to deep left Soderstrom going back still moving surveying some more making the catch at the warning track and that will retire the side some opposite field power Eldridge but it stays in the yard just barely it's nothing nothing is Tyler Soderstrom stands in that's a liner base hit in the left field to start the fourth inning Soderstrom testing him to throw the tag he is out at second that's Barracuda again what a throw I didn't think he had a chance but the more we see this young guy throw the more you just learn you don't bet against him he gets himself in position straightens up and unloads a perfect two hop strike on the ground Eldridge ranging far to his right he's going to feed Rupp who gets there and Butler Willie Adonis who is yet to figure out Jeffrey Springs Adonis is over eleven with five strikeouts Adonis a high drive left field deep at the wall. Go and the Giants take the lead is one nothing much for over eleven. Donald's got a high fastball and hit it ninety nine and left center field McNeil was grazed by a pitch in the third Neil floats one into center in comes Cox it will drop down Jeff a loop single with one out and that's where he's made his money and the A's have a one out base hit to left. Here is a Lika and just seven at bats last couple of days down in triple A three for seven. Now a Lika stripes it to left center field Barracuda on the run. He's not going to get there. He cuts it off before the wall Crosby given McNeil the windmill home the relay throw the play dove around the tag McNeil say Susak thought he applied the tag. The throw was on time. McNeil was able to evade the tag. It's a one to one game line trying base hit in the right center. Crosby is going to stop a Lika Williams second hit for Henry Bolton and the A's have him on the corners for Kurtz swinging a ground ball the second Casey Schmidt quick flip to second Adonis is going to first Kurtz legs it out. The A's score two to one in favor of the green and gold. So Kurtz will pick up the RBI his sixty second of the year and the A's are now up by a run in response after the Adonis Homer in the bottom of the fourth curve ball struck him out but the A's rally for two runs and they take the lead midway through five to one A's called strike three another strikeout for Jeffrey Springs five strikeouts for Jeffrey to two wave and a miss. Guess what it's the change up and the A's are through five innings with the lead two to one high and away three balls and two strikes three and two soft liner short hops Adonis Hosmer from Soderstrom he gets there safely as a leadoff baserunner on the ground Rube has it. There's one got him double play by Rube just reach the glove out and look what I found just a great position to be able to swing around in the back slab and slap that ball in your glove for pitch walk Eldridge is the board for Casey Schmidt Schmidt headed to left field that's a base hit. Casey fell behind in the count but pulls a liner into left Giants have two on with one out Marc Gatier on his way out and has made the call to the bullpen he'll take Jeffrey Springs out of this ballgame going to go to the left hander he's now clinging to a one run lead two on one out we see the left hander Matt Crook take over now wants to load the bases and John who Lee is coming up a player who has been primed for the big moment for much of this season the crowd audibly responds every time his name is announced here at Oracle Park John who liner to right and it's down for a hit and it gets by Butler this is going to clear the bases Lee coming around a third and he's there with a triple four to two Giants Victor Barracuda Ozo for two and the walk off home run last night now as John who Lee's speed at third Barracuda Ozo to centerfield and deep it is gone he's done it again goodness and another towering home run for forty five for the second day in a row the man is inspired six to two Giants a duplicate performance from Barracuda Ozo back to back last night with a great throw in and a homer today a great throw and a homer well it's McNeil now one for one was hit by a pitch singled and then scored after a nice evasive maneuver and he'll make it a two for two day multihead effort for Jeff McNeil good to see that punched into shallow right it gets down over Eldridge and Aliko Williams aboard his second hit of the game so Eric Miller will go after Nick Kurtz he's hoping to send a few headed toward the Cubby Cove with two on and two outs the man tasked with doing so will be Kurtz he does walk and bases loaded now Miller will have to face Shalala Lear's up the middle they'll get a couple back run scores and here comes Aliko two runs come in to score and the A's are now down by two Butler is 0 4 3 1 and 2 Butler gets in the air to center Cox on the move at the warning track by the wall and it's off the wall he banged up against the wall and Butler able to get just enough McNeil has two hits today was hit by a pitch has scored twice line drive base hit into right Crosby's given Butler the windmill home Lee's throw to the plate is a good one but Butler dives underneath the tag a single for Jeff McNeil it's a six to five game thirty third appearance on the year for Killian he's had six save opportunities he's cashed in twenty five times this is a save opportunity busted back bouncer moving over his Schmidt gathers throws to first not in time blazing speed for Bolte make that a three hit game and he gets a board in the top of the ninth inning with the A's down run all the way to the backstop and Bolte will advance 90 feet now into scoring position and this changes things a lot and that's exactly what he gets the strikeout Langleyers breaks his bat it's ground ball to short Adames has it he'll throw the first just in time to get Langleyers two down Soderstrom takes a strike and he's challenging. He thought it was low it was low. They have Heim coming up who has had a flair for the dramatic one oh ground ball through for a base hit Bolte wave television ties the game San Francisco Wanda Butler just a fantastic job by this A's lineup to remain unresilient after a couple tough losses and he will face this shallow left trapping. Just a fantastic effort looking for another fantastic effort out of Mason Barnett who's been outstanding this season line in the left Soderstrom will make the catch of the A's win. They come from behind again and score seven unanswered runs Barnett with the same and the athletics very happy about that.
